EFT stands for Emotional Freedom Technique, and is a body-based therapy tool used to alleviate physical and emotional pain or distress. It uses the principles of acupressure to gently tap on certain points of the body while accessing an awareness of physical or emotional distress. It is believed that these pressure points then send messages to the nervous system that help it to deactivate the stress response and restore the body/emotional system to a calm and neutral state.
